The 3D Backlash: is it Real, and Who Gains From it? - by Neil Schneider

I've been playing video games for a long time, and out of all the technologies I have seen hit the market, I have never witnessed a seemingly organized movement like the one against stereoscopic 3D gaming. While I admit that I am very biased because I have been enjoying 3D for several years now, it's amazing to see how much time and energy is spent on trying to tear it down.

This backlash isn't driven by customers or game developers. People aren't picketing in the streets against 3D, and top game developers have all made positive efforts towards its long term success.
